Cheju Mission

The Cheju Mission was a military mission of Great Britain established in 1867 in the Qing Dynasty city of Cheju (Jeju Island, present-day South Korea).

History
Queen Victoria I of Great Britain sent a military mission to the Qing Dynasty of China, as the Chinese culture piqued her interest, in 1867 and they were allowed to set up a home in Cheju (on the present-day South Korean island of Jeju). On 31 August 1868 they were met with violence from the xenophobic villagers, so the Qing Dynasty killed the attackers (5% of the population).
